After a two-month standoff that has caught the world’s attention, Hong Kong authorities are expected to attempt to make a final push against thousands of activists pushing demands for greater democracy in the territory. The occupation appears to be reaching a crescendo, with hundreds of demonstrators back on the streets to await police action. For instance, Rose Tang, a firebrand who survived the Tiananmen Square massacre as a student in 1989 and was forced to flee the country, flew in over the weekend from New York to add her opposition to police action.
